grave will not care for anyone buried in it, whether the person is rich or poor, a minister or his adviser, a ruler or the one being ruled, officer or subordinate, employer or employee, doctor or patient, contractor or labourer, in short, is anyone lacks good deeds for the Hereafter, misses Salahs deliberately, does not observe fast in the month of Ramadan without any Shar’i reason, does not give Zakat despite it being Fard for him, does not perform Haj despite it being Fard for him, does not impose veiling despite having the power to do so, disobeys his parents, has the habit of speaking lies, backbites, tale-telling, keeps watching films and dramas, listening to songs and music, getting his beard cut or trims it to less than a fist, in short, keeps committing many sins, then Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and His beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم will be displeased with him and he will receive nothing but embarrassment.

Fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ!

Dear Islamic brothers! No Muslim can deny that every person has to account for his deeds before Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ after living this brief life. Thereafter if we succeed in obtaining the mercy of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, we will be blessed with the great blessings of Paradise or مَعَاذَ اللّٰه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Due to our sins, we may be given the horrible punishments of Hell. Therefore it is certainly an unwise act to become heedless of accountability in the Hereafter due to being lost in the beauty, pleasures and elegance of this worldly life. Remember! Salvation can be achieved if we act upon the commandments of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and His beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and we accumulate virtues and avoid committing sins. For this great purpose, the fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is essential. Unless we have this blessing, it is almost impossible to escape sins and love good deeds. Sayyiduna Shaykh Abdul Qaadir Jilaani رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has said: O bondsman of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! Are you fearless of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, but rather feel fear; if Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ had not created Paradise and Hell, even He has this right that he should be feared and trusted. (Al-Fath-ul-Rabbani, pp. 75, 76)

Remember! Fear of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ does not refer to just reading or listening to incidents of the grave, Plains of Resurrection, Accountability and the Meezan (the scale of balancing) and then becoming sad and weeping sometimes but apart from all this, giving up committing sins while fulfilling the obligatory requirements practically and engaging ourselves in obeying Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ are
